Slab Edge & Head of Wall Firestopping
Fire and smoke can move between rooms through the gap that exists at the perimeter slab edge of a commercial building. However, the floor’s fire-resistance rating can be improved with slab edge firestop products installed by TruTeam. At the top of a wall, there is often a gap that can also allow fire and smoke to spread. Head-of-wall firestopping consists of a fire resistant compound that is installed to fill these gaps.
